The teachings of the White Lotus Sect are mixed, and all schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism contain them, and the main inheritance is the convergence of the White Lotus Sect of Buddhism and the Ming Sect, of which the Ming Sect has the greatest influence, and the lineage of the sect and the organization of the religion and the basic doctrines are all derived from the Ming Sect.

It's just that since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, because Zhu Yuanzhang called himself "King of the Ming Dynasty" according to the teachings of Mingjiao, and the country name was also called Ming, he severely cracked down on Mingjiao, so that it had to be renamed White Lotus Sect.

Mingjiao, also known as Manichaeism, came from Persia and its basic doctrine was the struggle between light and darkness, believing that light would triumph over darkness.

The White Lotus Sect has a secret recipe that has been passed down for many years, "The sludge comes from the chaos of enlightenment, and the white lotus is prosperous", which embodies the basic doctrine of the struggle between darkness and light.

At the same time, there are two holy objects in this formula, one is the ball of chaos that represents the "primordial darkness", and the other is the white jade lotus flower that represents the "light of the last days".

Originally, the Ball of Chaos remained in the Persian Manichaean Sect, which meant that the Sect was the source of the inheritance, and the White Jade Lotus was preserved by the Ming Sect in Middle-earth, which meant that the Ming Sect would be carried forward in Middle-earth.

The Ming religion of the Middle Earth has indeed carried forward, the Red Turban Army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty was in full swing, and Han Lin'er and Liu Futong established the dragon and phoenix regime, almost seized the entire world, and then although Zhu Yuanzhang seized the country, after all, the folk influence is great, and the inheritance has been continuous for hundreds of years, and the white jade lotus has been handed down.

The Persian Patriarch was unfortunate, he was slaughtered by the Hulegu army of Meng Yuan's Western Expedition, and even the Ball of Chaos was snatched away, and his whereabouts have been unknown since then.

The white jade lotus flower must be combined with the chaos ball to be effective, since the chaos ball is lost, the white jade lotus only has a symbolic meaning, and its status has declined, and it has gradually changed from a token of the sect leader to an offering to serve the lifeless old mother, and it is in charge of the holy left envoy.

If the Ball of Chaos can be recaptured, it means that the White Lotus Sect has regained the inheritance of the Persian Archmaster, and has the two holy relics in control at the same time!

The White Lotus Sect Leader was immediately overjoyed, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, and he said in a loud voice: "Okay, Asha did a good job!" What is the first life of the Qin Devil? If the Sphere of Chaos can be recaptured, the Cult will surely regain its prestige! ”

Ai Kuchan also said: "Congratulations to the Holy Sect Master! If the two holy relics are merged, it is in response to the formula of 'sludge comes from chaos Qi, and the white lotus is prosperous', I am afraid that overthrowing the pseudo-Ming and pseudo-dynasties and rebuilding the dragon and phoenix court will also mean that it can be waited! ”

"Since it is possible to recapture the Chaos Ball, then inform the Gao Zuo Envoy to hand over the White Jade Lotus," the White Lotus Sect Master couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, and stroked the top of Asha's head lovingly: "Asha, Asha, no wonder the master calculated the astrology a few years ago, the luck of the pseudo-Ming Dynasty will be bad in your hands, and finding the Chaos Ball this time is an excellent example." ”

Ai Kuchan, Zi Hanyan and others were all in one place, knowing that this was the sect leader beating themselves, so they bowed their heads and said: "The Holy Maiden is a heavy burden of the sect, and his subordinates will definitely do their best to assist, so that the holy sect will be carried forward as soon as possible, and the dragon and phoenix banner will reappear in the world!" ”

That's right, the White Lotus Sect Master smiled and nodded, his beautiful eyes were burning with a raging fighting spirit, as if he had seen the day when the Red Turban Righteous Flag swept the world again...... "Here, it tastes very good, master should taste it," Asha handed a string of sugar gourds to the White Lotus Sect Master.

Belch? The White Lotus Sect Master subconsciously took the sugar gourd, and his thinking suddenly shifted from the scene of the killing and conquest to this string of red and gorgeous sugar gourds.

Asha smiled sweetly at her, turned around and bounced away: "Master, I'm going undercover in Qinlin's mansion, don't worry, wait for the good news!" ”

"This Asha, it's really ......" Ai Kuzen smiled bitterly, looked at the majestic and dignified sect leader with a string of sugar gourds stuffed in his hand, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Actually, I really want to eat sugar gourds," the White Lotus Sect Master smiled gently, and in an instant, it was like the first thaw of the iceberg and the thawing of the snow peak, and he gently opened his mouth and chewed the sugar gourd slowly, not knowing which one is more dazzling, red lips or red and bright sugar gourd?

Asha happily returned to the mansion and happily kicked the big yellow dog that was wagging his tail to meet him, but the big yellow dog became more and more flattering and wagged his tail more happily.

The female soldiers, servants and pro-soldier captains who passed by all felt strange, this big yellow dog was fierce and ruthless, and he had always been very evil to Lu Yuanzhi and these people, but when he met Asha, he was very honest, and it was really strange.

Qin Lin also came back and was talking to Xu Xinyi and Qingdai in the hall.

Asha looked around and no one was paying attention, pretending to walk the dog, leaning over and eavesdropping on what they were saying.

“…… I look at that Huang Taiji, I'm afraid it's a mongrel, if it's really a descendant of the Golden Family, why don't you know the origin of Urwin Yeli? ”

Qin Lin said very disdainfully, causing Xu Xinyi to laugh out loud, while Qing Dai pursed her lips and grinned: "Brother Qin is really bad, if Huang Taiji hears it, he will definitely be half angry." ”

It turns out that Uncle Qin has gone to Huang Taiji with the Chaos Ball, hmph, why didn't he come to ask me? Asha thought so and tugged at Rhubarb's ear.

But I heard Qin Lin say again: "But Huang Taiji and Bahechi guessed blindly, saying that this thing may be recognized by the Usizang Tantra, I think it is possible, so I will stay with them for the time being, and let the Usizang Tsogyada Varpindi help us take a look." ”

This also deceived two thousand silver, and when the time comes, it will be too easy for Qin Lin, who is in charge of the Fusi of Beizhen, to get Urwin back.

What the? Asha outside the window was so anxious that she grabbed her hair, she knew that the Chaos Ball was actually useless to Qin Lin, so it could be regarded as an explanation if she stole it and handed it over to the master.

Who knew that Qin Lin gave the Ball of Chaos to the Mongols, and he wanted to give it to the great master of the Jinding Temple, if it was in the hands of the Dharma King, how could he steal it back?

King Weide of Jinding Temple is as famous as the White Lotus Sect Master, and he is the top master in the world today, and Buddhism, martial arts, and scriptures are three uniques, and his junior brother is probably also an extraordinary master, and Asha is probably not an opponent.

"Do you have to go out in person? It's still not good to provoke Tantra, our White Lotus Sect and Zha Lun Jinding Temple have always been well water and not river water......" Asha pouted depressedly.

Not long after, Asha sneaked out of the mansion and re-entered the compound.

But there was no one here, and it was empty as if no one had ever come.

Asha had nothing to do, left a secret note of his visit, and returned home in a huff.

On the second day, the holy consciousness of all merits is immeasurable, Gyada Varpindi, the younger brother of King Weide of Jinding Temple, and the incomparably noble King Weiling on the snowy plateau to impress dozens of great monks, and the incomparably noble King Welling, the Dharma drove to the Beijing Division.

The lamas of Longfu Temple, some officials and people who believed in Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism in Beijing, officials from the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple, and Huitong Hall sent by the imperial court, and all the Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji of the Tumut Department all went to greet them.

Ten miles outside the city, the gongs and drums are noisy, the copper trombone makes a low and majestic sound, as if the strong Buddha sound from the west sky, all the lamas of the Longfu Temple are dressed up to welcome, holding the pestle, the prayer wheel, the vajra cone, the blessing treasure file and other magic instruments, arranged neatly.

Most of the people did not understand the difference between Tibetan Esoteric Buddhism and Zen Buddhism in the mainland, but only knew that it was a reincarnated Bodhisattva, a great virtuous monk, and all of them flocked to watch.

The Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji were all draped, wearing gorgeous Mongolian robes, and wearing Buddhist beads made of cat's eyes, pearls, and agate around their necks, waiting reverently.

Several court officials who believed in Confucianism, although they told themselves in their hearts that their sons were silent and strange, they couldn't help but shake their hearts at this moment.

This kind of power, the Dharma King has not yet arrived, and he has already taken the lead.

It's coming, it's coming! A little lama ran over happily, shouting all the way.

From the direction of Tongzhou, a large group of people and horses came from afar, only to see two yaks with pure white coats, walking with steady steps, decorated with gold and silver jewelry, looking noble and gorgeous.

Then there were eighteen red-clothed monks, all of whom were born in strange shapes, holding various strange weapons such as big gongs, treasure rods, and golden pestles in their hands. ”

Then there was a group of young women dressed in colorful clothes, all dressed in Uszang's clothes, with two balls of plateau red on their faces, carrying jugs and flower baskets in their hands, throwing clean water and flower petals along the way.

A group of people came, I really don't know how big the pomp and circumstance, only the officials and the people were dazzled, and the end was a huge step, with a white glazed roof, and a crimson gauze tent was piled down on all sides, and the gold thread was embroidered with a lot of Sanskrit on it, and it was like a cloud in the distance.

"Venerable Welling has arrived!" There was an earth-shattering cheer from the crowd that greeted them, and the Mongolian nobles led by Huang Taiji were so fascinated that they all turned over and bowed down, looked at the step and bowed to the top, and chanted the words in their mouths: "King Weiling, the Dharma drives the Central Plains, spreads the merits and promotes the Buddha, and the merits are immeasurable!" ”

I'm dizzy, why isn't it the old immortal of the stars driving the Central Plains? Qin Lin, who was standing next to the road with the officials and schools, only felt a little funny in his heart.

It is his duty to take a look at what this King Welling is from, how many catties and taels he has, and what kind of role it will play for the Mongolian nobles.

Zhu Yingzhen, the Duke of Chengguo, and Zhang Cheng, the celebrant supervisor, these two were specially sent by the imperial court, and the imperial court wanted to influence the Tibetans and Mongolians by encircling the Jinding Temple, so they showed their honor, not only crowned King Weiling as the "empowerment of the great teacher", but also sent a national prince and a eunuch to greet him.

Zhu Yingzhen is timid and afraid, while Zhang Cheng has the problem that eunuchs have - superstition, the two of them saw the grandeur of King Welling, and they didn't believe it for three points, but they only felt melancholy.

"This empowerment great teacher, if the Dharma is really strong, just looking at the posture of the thousands of prostrations, it is ...... to sigh," Zhu Yingzhen admired reverently.

Zhang Cheng was even more inspired: "Hey, Cisheng Li Niangniang believes in Buddhism, let's go back to the palace to talk about it, but also make a good fate, General Qin, what do you say?" ”

But no, Empress Dowager Li is the most superstitious in the entire palace, worships Buddha all day long, and even built a Cishou Temple, and made a statue of Nine Lotus Bodhisattva according to her appearance.

Zhang Cheng's abacus crackled, and he introduced King Welling to the Queen Mother, and he would definitely be able to get the favor of the Empress Dowager Li!

Qin Lin was very unhappy when he heard this, King Welling obviously colluded with the Mongol forces, and argued that the Jinding Temple had a tendency to merge with Altan Khan's politics and religion, and if King Welling took advantage of Empress Dowager Li's superstition to make wind and rain, it would be troublesome.

"This, I'm afraid it's not in accordance with the rules, after all, the King of Law is a foreign minister of Fanbang," Qin Lin said thoughtfully, knowing that his persuasive power was relatively small, and most of them did not dispel Zhang Cheng's thoughts.

Sure enough, although Zhang Cheng didn't argue with Qin Lin, the eagerness in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

Qin Lin secretly sighed in his heart, it doesn't matter whether Empress Dowager Li has Zhang Cheng's introduction or not, today's pomp alone is very demagogic, and King Welling appeared in Jingshi with a glorious image of propagating the Dharma from the West, which can be said to be a preemptive and invisibly created a situation in his favor.

I was at a loss for energy, but I saw that there was some confusion behind the crowd, and there were many people standing on both sides of the canal not far away, not knowing what they were doing.

Qin Lin wondered, these days, he mainly focuses on the affairs of Huang Taiji and King Welling, and even Murad's Lu Mi Gong manufacturing technology was thrown to Zhao Shizhen, so he didn't care about anything else, so he didn't know what was going on on the side of the canal.

Fortunately, he brought Hua Deguan by his side and asked the ghost in this place, and immediately spit Xingzi and flew straight away: "Ha, the chief asked the little one, and he really asked the right person." These people are all from the south who live in Beijing, including Zhejiang, Fujian, and Guangdong, as well as many tribute envoys from Nanyang, saying that they want to welcome Mazu Niangniang, the chief, and there are so many people who believe in Mazu on the southern coast. ”

I saw three very large and gorgeous boats sailing from afar on the canal, the boats were carved and painted, decorated with pearls, precious stones, jade, and jade, and the sails were embroidered with golden mountain patterns, which were as brilliant as burning clouds under the sun.

The sailors on the ship were all dressed in black suits, and they were all neatly packed and extraordinarily energetic.

On the deck of the ship in front of the head, there stood a Mazu Niangniang carved from mutton fat and white jade, which could not be seen clearly from a distance, and gradually the ship got closer, only to see that the Mazu jade statue was about the same height as the person, and the jade quality was very warm and delicate, and it looked particularly beautiful.

Mazu, also known as the Heavenly Concubine, the Queen of Heaven, the Virgin of Heaven, and the Mother of Heaven, is a deity worshiped by shipwrights, seafarers, travelers, merchants, and fishermen throughout the ages. In ancient times, sailing at sea was often attacked by wind and waves and ships sank, and the safety of the crew became a major concern for the sailors, who pinned their hopes on the blessing of the gods. Before the ship sets sail, it is necessary to sacrifice the heavenly concubine, pray for blessings and safety, and set up the heavenly concubine shrine on the ship.

How could you see the Mazu Statue in Jingshi, and there are so many people to greet you, what's going on?

What made Qin Lin even more puzzled was that the appearance of the jade statue was indistinguishable from a distance, and when he got closer, he realized that it looked like an old acquaintance of his!
